I ate there for the first time and i loved it!! The sandwiches were delicious and the sides!! Im still thinking about how freaking tasty everything was....the only thing to complain about here is the cornbread was too Dry...but i could have asked for butter...which dippin it in bbq sauce helped.. and the wait and constant business just were signs of being worth the wait and it so was!! so thank you Eli for the great fabulous food #bellygasm

First visit to Eli's BBQ, Outstanding ribs! I felt no need to add the delicious sauce provided, because the flavor of the ribs was so good. Very reasonable prices and great atmosphere! Keep up the good work! I will be back!

We had wanted to try Eli's for a long time and finally did last night. What a disappointment! The pulled pork was good but the turkey was very dry in the ribs were nothing to rave about. Worse yet, the sides were terrible...the baked beans tasted canned, The coleslaw had nothing but mayonnaise to it and the mashed potatoes were flat and burnt. Additionally, and employee had on a shirt that said "I can't breathe" which was very inappropriate to wear in a place of business. Our group was very disappointed but at least Kansas C... read more
